Erebus directly appeared outside a crimson palace situated in the middle of the temple of gods situated on the other side of the bar.
This was the residence of the heavenly emperor. Erebus directly walked inside the palace without paying any attention to the guards.
None of them paid him any attention as well. It was as though he was invisible for them.
Erebus directly walked inside the throne room. He had visited it many tis yet he still felt surprised that it was so plain.
Nothing decorative was present inside the throne room. It didn't look like the throne of one of the strongest people in the universe.
"What business do you have, Erebus?" The divine emperor asked curiously.
He was perched on the throne with a bored expression.
The jade emperor outshone the throne room with his appearance. With shining golden hair and red eyes, the Jade emperor was one of the most handso n in the universe.
Erebus of course considered himself much more handso but that was another topic.
"Tell , why did you send Jason to Clover?" Erebus questioned. He rose in the air and sat there so that he could be on eye level with the jade emperor.
"Looks like sothing interesting happened in Clover," The jade emperor smiled. "Tell , was it Hestia's rembering things from the past or was it Aiden paying Jason another visit?"
"The forr," Erebus replied calmly. "What exactly are you planning, Castus?"
"What did I say about calling by that na?" Castus frowned.
"I'm not calling you by your real na or the other nas you have accumulated in the nurous other realms." Erebus replied. "I'm gonna call you by the na that you are known by in Clover."
"People know there?" Castus raised his eyebrows.
"I an I created the na and spread your myths there so yeah. You even have a festival in your na if I rember correctly." Erebus shrugged.
Castus could only sigh. He could've easily abused his powers and forced Erebus to call him by his title but that was too troubleso.
Furthermore, both of them had known each other for an extrely long amount of ti. After spending that many years together, both of them didn't truly care what the other called them.
"Tell why did you send Jason to that realm especially during this ti? The guardian system there is not functioning properly and Hestia is also back. Aiden also made an appearance.
Those are no re coincidences and we both know that it isn't so destiny crap." Erebus asked again.
"Well, let's just say that I anticipated this. I predict when things are going to go ballistic in a particular realm and then reincarnate people there." Castus sighed.
"Wait, you have been throwing people into other realms for that long?" Erebus looked surprised. "I never knew that you were saving realms in that way."
"Erebus, what do you think a myth is and how does it build a god?" Castus suddenly asked.
"Myths are just out of the ordinary tales about things soone did. If enough people talk about them, they convert into a divine piece of energy which give power to the said person." Erebus replied.
"Then tell , how many myths are fake? How much are we affected by the active myths? What happens if no one talks about a myth?" Castus asked one question after the other.
"Dude, you have asked this tens of tis. I am tired of trying to think of more creative answers." The god of shadows pointed out.
"But I never get a concrete answer. Sotis gods disappear while sotis they remain behind even after their myths have died down.
Also, many of us are known in certain realms while many are not known in the sa realms. We are represented differently all over the universe yet both of us retain these forms that we like." Castus continued on.
If soone heard him, they might say that he was a scholar rather than an emperor.
Erebus knew that after thousands and thousands of years of existence, even gods began questioning themselves.
Castus had been curious about such things in his mortal life too. Erebus wondered what would've happen if that boy had never done a heroic thing and his legend hadn't spread around.
Maybe then, they wouldn't have gotten a divine emperor.
"I guess I should answer your question," Castus sighed. "I sent Jason there because he seed the perfect person for the job. He got you as a patron which is the most shocking thing especially since you are still bound by that curse."
"As expected, he is an anomaly like ." Erebus muttered.
"But I have had no hands in what happened with him afterwards. I did manipulate the rebirth cycle a bit to give so advantage yet no direct action was taken. Everything he received was totally based on luck."
"That sound fake."
"There is nothing I can do to convince you. Its probably because his family is full of such people. I checked the files and it turns out both Issac and Risa had primordial gods as their patrons." Castus inford.
"Primordial gods?!" Erebus's mouth opened slightly when he learned that both Issac and Risa had primordial gods as their patrons.
They rarely showed themselves and usually only took soone under their wing for five to ten years.
Only one in fifty million living beings had the chances of having a primordial patron. If two such people t and had children, it would result in the form of Syrward family.
"Not only that but his father actually had that guardian as his guardian. His mother on the other hand has one of the sins as a patron." Castus chuckled.
Erebus couldn't believe what was running in the family. If he wasn't a god, he would've thought that the Syrward family was running so kind of cult to make this work.
"And now you, a fallen primordial god, beca the patron of their oldest grandchild." Castus smiled. "This child has a strange luck. Maybe you should pay lady luck a visit and ask about this child."
"I think visiting Karma would be more effective…" Erebus muttered.
"Whatever suits you," The jade emperor shrugged. "Anything else you want to ask?"
"There's one thing…" Erebus muttered. "Who were Issac and Risa's patrons and what powers did they give to the couple?"
